Watch Chelsea Legend Claim He'll 'Be Back'

Chelsea fans in New York had a close encounter with club legend and spirit animal Frank Lampard, who claimed he'd return to Chelsea one day.

Lampard, who now plays for New Manch-... Sorry, New York City FC, was confronted by chants of 'we want our Frankie back!' when he met fans in a New York venue. In true terminator style (if the ruthless killing machine were actually a slightly awkward ageing football geezer), Lampard replied with the killer line: "I'll be back."

Thanks for watching!

Whether this actually means Lampard is planning on returning as a player or not isn't really clear, but it will tug the heart-strings of even the 'ardest Blues out there. Oh, Frank.
